Diablo 4 Season 4 PTR Adds New Uniques, Legendary Aspects, and More

Each class has new Uniques and Legendary Aspects to grind for when the Public Test Realm goes live on April 2nd on BattleNet.

Alongside Helltide changes and The Pit of Artificers, Diablo 4 is also getting some new items and Legendary Aspects with the Season 4 PTR. There’s Tyrael’s Might, a new Unique Chest Armor for all classes, which allows all Skills to unleash a “divine barrage” when at full life and Yen’s Blessing, Unique Boots that have a 20 to 30 percent chance to “cast a Non-Mobility, Non-Ultimate Skill” that’s on cooldown once every 12 seconds.

The new Legendary Aspects include Aspect of Frosty Strides, where evading freezes nearby enemies, dealing Cold damage and applying vulnerable for three seconds when below 45 to 60 percent life. Then you also have class-exclusive Aspects, like the Necromancer’s Aphotic Aspect, where Skeletal Warriors deal Shadow damage and have a five to 15 percent to stun enemies for 1.5 seconds.

Check out some of the PTR notes below, though it’s worth checking out the full patch notes for balance changes. Diablo 4’s PTR goes live on April 2nd for PC players, with Season 4 launching on May 14th.
